NEW Recipe Alert: Cauliflower Fried Rice

I've made cauliflower fried "rice" quite a few time's and I absolutely LOVE it! It's a da-licious healthy alternative to traditional "Fried Rice" which usually calls for white rice and egg's.

However, this recipe twist was inspired by my husband Ryan, he's usually a strict meat and potatoes kind of guy but he's been meat free for the last 20 days. So, for him I decided to add in QUINOA for extra protein. This dish was a total hit, I plan to make it this way from now on.

Try it out for your family and let me know your thought's.
